On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 26th of 30 of the 30 defensive midfielders in the Liga MX. At 30 Rivera is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4.8 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Rivera missed 3 games through injury (yellow cards) out of roughly 40 this season. The 20 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — solid defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 20 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 26.1, Rivera carries the 26th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the Liga MX of 30. Defensively he reads as solid defensive volume (3.54 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~10), then tapers with age. At 30, Rivera sits on 4.8, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Rivera's projected Rating — 26.1 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
